arach

Personal meta-skill for Arach. Use this as the entry point to understand Arach's projects, conventions, available skills, and preferred agent workflows. Activates on "arach's projects", "what does arach work on", when working in any arach/* repo, or when Arach asks to explain something with context, send it to a Scout/ACP-enabled reviewer, collect the review, and decide the next step.

Remove AI writing patterns from prose. Two-pass system: diagnosis then reconstruction with anti-AI audit. Detects and fixes: throat-clearing, emphasis crutches, promotional language, superficial -ing analyses, vague attributions, em dash overuse, rule of three, AI vocabulary, negative parallelisms, binary contrasts, dramatic fragmentation, and more. Supports voice presets: crisp, warm, expert, story.

Generate AI-agent-ready documentation and static doc sites using Dewey. Use when asked to "set up docs", "create documentation", "make docs agent-friendly", "generate AGENTS.md", "add llms.txt", or "create a doc site".

Use the Scout CLI (scout send, scout ask, scout who, scout wait, scout whoami) for agent-to-agent coordination via the local broker. Load this skill whenever the user asks to message or ask another agent, hand off work across agents, continue a Scout flight/ref/session, route by project and harness, check who is around, or fan out a Scout request — including `/scout` and `@agent` mentions. Prefer shelling out to `scout` with structured flags over inventing agent names.

Defines how URL and HTTP endpoint strings should appear in code: centralize literals, separate configurable bases from fixed paths, and avoid secrets in source. Use when adding fetch/axios clients, WebSocket URLs, webhooks, OpenAPI bases, reviewing PRs for hardcoded URLs, or when the user asks about URL configuration policy.

Inspect video clips for AI context using ffprobe metadata and ffmpeg contact sheets. Use for Talkie tray clips, screen recordings, recently shared videos, dictation context clips, or any task asking what is visible in a video.

Query Talkie voice memos, dictations, workflows, and stats via the CLI. Use when the user asks about their recordings, transcripts, dictation history, or anything related to Talkie data. Also provides context about what Talkie can do — voice memos, live dictation, screenshots, and workflow automation.

Control a macOS developer workspace via the Lattices daemon API. Use when managing windows, tiling layouts, launching terminal sessions, searching screen text, switching workspace layers, or automating desktop workflows. Activates on "lattices", "tile windows", "workspace layout", "screen text", "session layers", or any desktop automation task on macOS.

Create architecture diagrams using Arc's JSON format. Use when asked to "create an architecture diagram", "draw a system diagram", "visualize the architecture", or "make a diagram of".

Generate text-to-speech audio and control it through the permanent native SpeakEasy macOS menu-bar player. Use for narration, voice notes, spoken summaries, voice/provider tests, autoplay, queue management, pause/resume/stop, scrubbing, volume, playback speed, player status, or returning from the live HUD to the originating Codex task.

Use when Hermes should drive the Action native macOS runtime through MCP for observing surfaces, resolving targets, executing deterministic actions, recording captures, and inspecting artifacts. Trigger for Hermes + Action workflows, native demo automation, guided capture, target-first macOS actions, or recording through Action.app.

Generate AI-agent-ready documentation and static doc sites using Dewey. Use when asked to "set up docs", "create documentation", "make docs agent-friendly", "generate AGENTS.md", "add llms.txt", or "create a doc site".

Generate Open Graph images for projects using @arach/og. Use when setting up OG images, creating social preview images, or when user mentions "og", "open graph", or "social images".

Integrate vif demo automation into macOS/iOS apps. Use when the user mentions vif, demo recording, VifTargets, DemoAnchors, automation targets, exposing UI elements, click coordinates, navigation targets, or integrating apps with vif. Covers HTTP API setup, coordinate conversion, SwiftUI modifiers, and scene YAML authoring.

Use Scout MCP tools for agent discovery, direct messages, project-routed asks, exact session continuity, and work item updates. Trigger this when the user wants to contact another Scout agent, delegate work, inspect who is online, or check Scout routing state from Codex.
